Right, now that it’s just us true nerds, we all know there’s only one rivalry that matters on Doctor Who. Forget Daleks vs Cybermen, it’s all about Moffat vs Capaldi: who is the bigger fan?

“Let it be understood that in a face-off, in a head to head,” he explained, “he’s nowhere bloody close. I’m ahead on knowledge, I am.”
